Everything about Collocation method

Mathematical method for approximating solutions to differential and integral equations

In mathematics, a collocation method is a method for the numerical solution of ordinary differential equations, partial differential equations and integral equations. The idea is to choose a finite-dimensional space of candidate solutions and a number of points in the domain, and to select that solution which satisfies the given equation at the collocation points.
